CLEVELAND, Miss.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The GRAMMY Museum®‘s most popular exhibit to
date, The Taylor Swift Experience™ will open at GRAMMY
Museum Mississippi
in Cleveland, Miss., on March 3, 2017, two
days before the Mississippi Museum celebrates its one-year anniversary.

“We couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate our one-year anniversary
than by hosting this incredible exhibit paying tribute to one of the
most legendary artists of today,” said Emily Havens, Executive Director
of GRAMMY Museum Mississippi. “After showings in Los Angeles and New
York we are thrilled to bring her story to Cleveland, Mississippi, only
a few hours away from her hometown of Nashville, where Taylor began her
recording career.”

    include iconic outfits from the GRAMMY-winning Best Music Video “Bad

  • Pre-Met Gala Louis Vuitton dress
  • Handwritten lyrics for Taylor’s smash hits “Teardrops On My Guitar,”
    “White Horse,” “22” and “Welcome To New York”

Having originally debuted at the GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles on Dec.
13, 2014, Taylor’s 25th birthday, the exhibit was expected to close in
May 2015, but due to overwhelming response, was extended through Oct. 4,
2015. The exhibit made its East Coast premiere on Nov. 18, 2016, in New
York’s Seaport District, where it remained on display through Feb. 19,
2017.

Mississippi’s Special Exhibits Gallery through Aug. 13, 2017. GRAMMY

About Taylor Swift

In the fall of 2014, when Taylor Swift released her critically acclaimed
fifth album, 1989, she astounded the world by selling
almost 1.3 million albums in its debut week — a feat that had been
called impossible. Taylor is the only artist in history to have three
albums selling over one million copies in their first week of release
(2010’s Speak Now2012’s RED and
2014’s 1989). Taylor, a ten-time GRAMMY winner, is a
singer, songwriter, musician, and producer, and not only the youngest
winner in history, she is the first female solo artist to win the
music industry’s highest honor, the GRAMMY Award for Album of
the Year 
twice. Taylor has an album on Rolling Stone’s
prestigious The 50 Greatest Albums of All Time (by women)
list, she is Billboard’s youngest-ever Woman of the Year and
the only artist to have been awarded this honor twice, Time magazine has
named her one the of the 100 Most Influential People in the
world and one of only eight candidates for their most prestigious honor, 2014
Person of the Year
and is the inaugural recipient of AMA’s Dick
Clark Award for Excellence
. The number of awards she has won and the
sales figures only tell part of Taylor’s story, it’s the intangibles
that elevate Taylor into the stratosphere of our pop culture planet,
allowing the 27-year old singer-songwriter to orbit in a more rarified
air. Her large-scale charitable contributions are one thing, but it’s in
the small gestures – the notes of compassion she posts on the Instagram
photos of lovelorn fans, the genuine hugs she distributes without
discretion – where Swift proves time and time again that
platinum-selling, record-setting success has not changed her inherent
nature. She is awkwardly honest and powerfully empathetic; a brazen
superfan, loyal friend, fierce protector of hearts; and one of the
world’s greatest ambassadors for the power of just being yourself.
